When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
Quick update on our command vehicles! They’re looking great and we’re excited about the progress being made. The next step is to have them lettered and have the emergency equipment mounted and wired. Looking forward to having these vehicles as part of our fleet!
Yesterday morning at 9:23am, RFD was dispatched to a structure fire on Day Rd off of KY HWY 185. Units assigned as part of WCFD and our mutual aid departments responded. Additional units from BGFD were also requested to assist.
Upon arrival, personnel found fire spreading from an attached workshop into the two-story residence. Multiple hose lines were deployed to extinguish the fire and prevent it from extending further into the house. Once the fire was under control, crews remained on scene for a period of time to ensure full extinguishment of any hotspots and hidden fire. No injuries were reported.
As always, we appreciate the support and the hard work our assisting agencies provide:
- Gott Fire Department
- Barren River Fire Department
- Smiths Grove Volunteer Fire Department
- Bowling Green Fire Department
- Medical Center EMS
- Warren County Sheriff's Office
